CMF boasts a leading position in the ports of Algeciras, Ceuta and Gibraltar. This success is due to the constant quality and reliability of the products that come out directly from CEPSA’s refinery in San Roque (Algeciras Bay), and the best practices of our experienced people. This refinery distillates 12 mill tons per year and already holds bunker storage of 220.000 m3.
The new terminal is located right in front of anchorage areas C and D at ‘Isla Verde’, included in the new developed hub that comprises TTI terminal and CLH already existing facilities.
With these new developments at CLH terminal, CMF enlarges bunkering storage to 310.000 m3 in the port. The new facilities are provided with two lines to load barges and one to discharge cargoes, which can be also used to load barges when unoccupied. Barges can be loaded simultaneously at up to 700 m3/h for fuel oils and 250 m3/h for marine gasoil.
Supplies by truck are also available through completely automated loading points. The company already provides 4 barges in this port.
With this increase in storage and barge loading positions, CMF will strengthen its service in the Strait of Gibraltar.
